LAHORE – Jhanvi Kapoor is named the ‘Rising Talent of the Year’ by Norwegian Consulate General. The young talent was excited, “I made my debut with Dhadak this year. Our film has been seen by audiences across the globe since it released worldwide and many of them including people staying in Norway have their good wishes via social media. This recognition is a pleasant surprise. I am happy to receive this honour and humbled that they chose me,” she said in a statement.
Ann Ollestad, Consul General of Norway in Mumbai, said: Indian films are being watched around the world now and Norway too has fans of many Indian films and actors. Since 2003, Norway hosts an annual Bollywood festival featuring prominent Indian actors and high profile Norwegian guests.
“Our official entry for Oscars this year was shot in India and has Indian actors in it. We are happy to honour Janhvi Kapoor whose first film has been very successful and the young actor seems to have a promising future in films.”
